doggone funny, fer Pete's sake.

Den I realized King JameS, ya' know da' guy dat rote da' BIbell,

Uffda, he liket tu say or no?
Ven dey yoose dose two vords, ya' bedder lissen.
Sumvun is asken yoo a queshchun an

Deuteronomy 8:2
"And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee
 these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee,
 to know what was in thine heart,

or no."

Luke 20:22

"Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar,

or no?"

John 9:25

"He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner

or no."

Fur cryin' outloud, he Efen had da' bad habit

ven he's 'splaining sumthin aboot sumbudy else.

Ven ya' hear dat' so,

 So,

 God created man in his own image,

So,

Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many;

King JameS Efen yoost da' longuh form of dat' sayeeng,

so then
tu start his sentenceS, ya' know,

ven he wuS gunna' say sumthin important.

because you are lukewarm,

and neither cold nor hot,

MinnuSOtanS turn a sentence into a queshchun

by putten dem dere wordS at da' end.
